by Jimmy Kempski

by Jimmy Kempski

For those of you who have already checked out on the Philadelphia Eagles' 2018 season after the drubbing they received in New Orleans on Sunday, there's always the offseason. Of course, "there's always the offseason" discussions skipped a year in 2017, but we're right back there, before Thanksgiving no less, one season later.

Eagles snap count analysis: Week 11 vs. Saints

by Jimmy Kempski

In the Philadelphia Eagles' loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, the Birds were playing a bunch of guys who I didn't even know existed a few weeks or months ago. That's no excuse for the wretched football they've played of late, but it does help explain their fall from grace this season.

It's time to start paying attention to the Eagles' draft position

by Jimmy Kempski

Maybe the Philadelphia Eagles will turn their season around, like most observers have been waiting for, for months. Or maybe they'll just continue to be a bad football team. My bet is on the latter. And so, perhaps it's time to start looking at the Birds' positioning in the draft order.

by Jimmy Kempski

Sitting at 4-5 after a devastating loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the Eagles are two games behind the 6-3 Washington Redskins. Eagles fans' outside rooting interests have long since shifted from earning a first round bye, to just having a seat at the table, at all, in the playoffs.

Eagles-Saints inactives, with analysis

by Jimmy Kempski

As usual, the Philadelphia Eagles are banged up heading into their matchup this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. The Saints have a couple of injuries of note, but are very healthy for a game this late in the season.

Redskins QB Alex Smith suffers gruesome leg injury

by Jimmy Kempski

The Redskins lead the NFC East, with the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys trailing them (for now) by two games. With Smith out, the Redskins' chances of holding on as division champs take a big hit.
